I understand why you would post about adding parts to your ST...but I haven't seen any posted benefits to convince me to spend north of $200 to have an aftermarket recirc BOV when I already have an OEM recirc BOV that functions just the same, other than to say I have one.

*sigh* It looks like we've reached some common ground. I've asked around, but I haven't gotten an answer. What do you think - do you surmise the delayed release is do to the BOV being electronic vs. vacuum-operated?

Helps what? You've provided no data to back up any claims with this specific example (your ST).

Ok, so explain to me the added benefit of the blowoff valve you installed? Have you upped the boost in your ST? If you have, is the stock BOV not able to hold boost? Does it leak? Most people are doing this Boomba spacer to convert their ST's BOV to VTA...I get it, some people love to hear...

Sorry, edited my original post when I saw that you were speaking about Turbosmart. Was reading about Steeda in another thread and had it on the brain. Well, I didn't want to come right out and say it, but maybe I'm asking to see what forced induction knowledge you have. You still haven't...

Well, you're crying in two different threads...soooo

You seem to get your feelings hurt easily. Maybe the internet isn't for you.

You're the one that posted the link to the Turbosmart BOV, I figured maybe you either had one or would be able to speak on its benefits over the stock BOV on a stock BOV system. There are a lot of newbies out there to forced induction, so I was asking for them...and to see if you'd be able to...

but it’s a recirc BOV, just how much noise with a stock air box would you get?

Take a read. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnuson%E2%80%93Moss_Warranty_Act

On stock turbos at stock boost, exactly what is the benefit of this BOV?

1. I wish people would stop calling these "blow off valves." They are spacers. 2. This spacer would only void a warranty if the dealership could prove that the part itself caused damage/failure. Look up the Magnusson - Moss act. 3. Can someone explain to me why our factory BOVs don't...

I think he was referring to a full turbo kit, not the intercooler.

I just stand on the door sill. :shrug:

Right?

Ok, this just got weird.

Honestly, we all have ST's here. What's the point of posting a picture of a stock one?

I mean, where's the lie?

I'll be anxious to see numbers before I spend money. Intake and exhaust (full turboback exhaust) should be on anyone's list well before an intercooler.

Hi, thanks for posting a picture of a stock Explorer. Welcome to the forum where everyone else has an Explorer.
